The competition was founded as the '''FT Premiership''' in 1945, following the decision from six [[TFL Top League|Top League]] (which was the top-tier league from 1889 to 1945) clubs to split from the Tierradorian Football League. Despite this decision, the Premiership is still tied to the TFL, with three clubs being promoted and relegated to and from both leagues. The Premiership takes advantage of a lucrative television rights sale to TNT and Television Cinco: from 2026 to 2027, accumulated television rights were worth around $3.1 billion per year, with TNT, Television Cinco, and SPN securing the domestic rights to broadcast 108, 32 and 20 games, respectively. The Premiership is a corporation where chief executive Yanelí Tangetta is responsible for its management, with the member clubs acting as shareholders. The Premiership (along with most sports leagues in Tierrador) follow an open league system, in which the clubs operate as independent organizations, separate to the league itself. The clubs are responsible for marketing their brand, with the option to include the Premiership branding, though the Premiership cannot overtake any kind of business operations, unless absolutely necessary. As part of the unequal revenue sharing agreement, clubs were apportioned central payment revenues of $3.4 billion in 2031–32, with Qapitol receiving the most at $164 million. A further $343 million was directed in revenue-sharing payments to TFL clubs. | The competition was founded as the '''FT Premiership''' in 1945, following the decision from six [[TFL Top League|Top League]] (which was the top-tier league from 1889 to 1945) clubs to split from the Tierradorian Football League.
